Chapter LI: Truths and Trust

════════ ××× ════════

OVERWHELMING GAZES LINGERED on the female elf as an almost never-ending moment of silence and awkwardness occurred inside the ship. The sudden change in the situation was unsettling for some while the others were rather conflicted and uncertain. They waited for the Lluminarian to state even a single word but a mixture of her sorrow and grief dominated the atmosphere. She had managed to find out something she refused to believe.

But she knew, even if she denied all of it, she couldn't change anything. Elliot and Kaden had managed to answer all of the questions that they always pondered about, all of them brought devastating news not only to Lluminaria but also Glamoura. The young female elf was the most affected and even until now she was in a state of denial. She barely spoke a word after they left Planet Plantae, unable to process the newfound information that the Lluminarian duo had managed to relay to the team.

Y/n's friends were genuinely worried for her. They knew how bad the situation was but never had they expected it to be this horrifying. The light kingdom was in grave danger, Kaden and Elliot were right. It was a whole new place she barely recognised, most likely because of their current ruler, her tyrant of a brother.

"Y/n... Are you okay?" Yaya broke the silence. Like the others, she wasn't able to discover the full truth about the events in the light kingdom. When Y/n was told about it, the former castle workers asked for a private conversation with her which was the reason for the others' cluelessness about the situation. "You were all right. He does not seem who he seemed to be, I do not recognise Lunos anymore," Y/n breathed out, revealing the root of her concern and problem.

"Did you find out something?" Gopal blurted out, earning a questioning look from everyone else in the room. "I am afraid that I have, Kaden and Sir Elliot brought information that I am still trying to process for the time being." The female elf looked down to the table, uncertain if she should meet their eyes. "An information I was afraid to know, but needed to know," She continued to tell them indirectly, gathering the courage to admit the full truth about what she had discovered.

Ying and Yaya glanced at each other in concern, having an idea of what it might be. "What did they tell you?" Boboiboy finally asked the Lluminarian elf as he placed a hand on the table. Y/n's (e/c) irises slowly travelled to the gloved hand of the young man as she pondered on what to say to them first, it was too much to take in. "Lunos," Y/n reluctantly began.

"He killed the King and Queen," she stated, clenching her right fist.

Everyone noticed how her atmosphere became heavier after that and Y/n couldn't even look at them. Her face was blank and unreadable. "King Helios and Queen Yvonne? I-i refuse to believe!" A certain pegasus guardian from beside her claimed while roughly shaking his head, his mane swishing around in the air. "Are you certain that this is the truth, your highness? It is preposterous! No child should slay their parents, it is heinous!" Cosmo continued while looking over at the elf.
